2023 IIJA Airport Improvement Grants (AIG)

April 15 was the deadline for submitting documents to the MoDOT Aviation Section. If you encountered issues submitting documents, please email MoDOT Aviation Section for assistance submitting the project to the FAA. 2023 AIG funds not under grant will be swept this year.

Note: The NPE dates for 2020, 2021 and 2022 represent the deadlines by which all project costs must be incurred. While the intent is for all expenditures to be fully completed by these dates, payments may be processed after the NPE deadline provided the associated costs were incurred beforehand.

The project was recognized as the best Portland Cement Concrete Runway in the Reliever and General Aviation Airport category for projects completed in the State of Missouri in 2025.

The award highlights the successful collaboration between MoDOT, the airport sponsor, project engineers, contractors and the FAA.



The Cameron runway project included full concrete reconstruction, along with safety and drainage improvements, to meet current FAA standards.

The ACPA award recognizes excellence in airport pavement construction projects that demonstrate outstanding engineering, quality and durability, which contribute significantly to the transportation infrastructure.
